Gateway 500GR Mother board Connector S Wiring

I have a Gateway 500GR motherboard E210882 / D915GAG. What is the correct connector arrangement for what I assume to be connector S ? It handles the 3 connections from the front cover panel. HHD LED, PWR LED and PWR SW. Each one being a 2 pin connector that connects to a 2 row 10 pin connector on the motherboard with what I assume to be pin 10 missing. Pin 2 being on the sane row at the other end of the connector. There is an arrow pointing to the pin right above what I assume to be pin 2. I think the arrow means start counting pins here which would make that pin number 1. That would make pin 1 far right top row and pin 2 far right bottom row and continue counting in that order down and up from right to left.

You are correct so far.

This is a perfect example of using deductive reasoning based on intelligent thought.

'Armed' with that I can see you will go far in life.

Gateway Support > Gateway 500GR Desktop PC > Main Support page,

http://support.gateway.com/s/PC/R/3724/3724nv.shtml

Click on Components in the list.
Scroll down. Under the bold black heading - Motherboards - click on
102007 - Intel (Augsburg) No CPU Motherboard R0

Click on Specifications.
Chipset: Intel 915G Chipset

http://www.ascendtech.us/gateway-augsburg-intel-915g-motherboard_i_mb4gwaugsburg.aspx

The front of your computer is the Front Panel.
The area of contact pins on the motherboard, that the wires from the Front Panel go to, is the Front Panel header.

In the photo the Front Panel header is marked by the letter S.

Let's go to Intel Support, and download the Product Guide for an Intel D915GAV motherboard,

http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-012048.htm

Click on the blue -
Intel Desktop Board D915GAV Product Guide - (English) PDF
Scroll your mouse cursor to the bottom/middle of the page, to bring the 'ghosted out' navigation guide into view.

Click on the Adobe PDF icon to the far right.
(When you hover your mouse cursor over it, "Show Adobe Reader toolbar" is briefly shown)

Different design motherboard in the layout of certain headers, and connectors, but same Ol' Front Panel header pinout, Intel uses for 10 pin Front Panel header's.
Whether it is an Intel O.E.M. motherboard, or one they made for a pre-built computer manufacturer.

Front Panel header for Gateway 500GR, is next to the bottom edge of the motherboard, and all the way towards the right.
5 pins across the Top row, 4 pins across the bottom row.

Pins on the Top row are numbered ODD.
Pins on the Bottom row are numbered EVEN.

TOP row; Starting on the RIGHT side going towards the Left;
Pins 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9.

BOTTOM row; Starting on the Right side going towards the Left;
Pins 2, 4, 6, and 8. There is NO Pin 10.

A) Pins 1 and 3 are for the HarDDrive activity LED. (Light Emitting Diode)

Pin 1 is for the Positive ( + ) wire. If the HDD LED is dim when the Harddrive is active, switch the wires around.

B) Pins 5 and 7 are for a Reset switch, IF a Reset switch is used.

C) Pin 9 is N/C. No Connection. Pin reserved for the factory.
(5 Volts DC)

D) Pins 2 and 4 are for the Power On LED.
Pin 2 is for the Positive ( + ) wire.
If the PWR ON LED is dim when the computer is on, switch the wires around.

E) Pins 6 and 8 are for the Power On switch.

F) Again, there is No pin 10.

SOURCE: ATX-SW Motherboard?

The manufacturer website should have what you need.
You also might need to know what chipset is on the board as well.
If it is the AMD board, go to www.amd.com
I hope this helps.
Good Luck.

There should be printer words on the motherboard next to the header. Use a magnify glass to look in and see. I will look for a diagram for you.

I press the power button on the front and no fans run

Sounds like your power supply is not supplying 12v to the system. Check all your power connectors are seated properly on your motherboard, if so then i'm afraid you need a new power supply.

Hi kjstenny, not sure where you saw the board E210882. This is not a valid Intel model number. The Intel D865GLC is a valid model number & you can download the manual for this at the link below:
http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/d865glc/BFLC_English.pdf
Main Intel link for D865GLC:
http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/D865GLC/LC_manual.htm
MB layout page 14 & 15. Than see page 13 block D, J9J1 Front panel pins. Page 43 for jumper connections.

Intel D865PCD (Matched). Front panel, page 34 & 35. Download manual at this link:
http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/d865pcd/sb/cdenglish.pdf
Main link: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=1671&lang=eng

Intel D865PCK - (No Match). (Or no longer listed).
D865PE50 - (No Match). (Or no longer listed).

The most common wire color for each 2-pin connector will be negative, including the color black.

Good luck kjstenny!
Still need help, just post your question.

My computer won,t turn on

2x2 or 2x4 Power Connector Not Plugged In
If the power supply cable with the 2x2 connector or 2x4 connector (depending on your desktop board), is not plugged into the 12V processor core voltage connector located near the processor socket, the system will not boot up. You will see lights onboard and on the chassis front panel and the processor fan will spin, but nothing will appear on the monitor. See figures below for cable placement.
  • Make sure the fans on the processor are connected properly and running.
  • Make sure that the thermal interface material or the thermal grease is applied to the processor properly.
  • Make sure that the power supply fan is running properly and any other external case fans are running properly.
  • Make sure that the air intakes for the external fans are unobstructed and have at least several inches away from walls and other items.
